I've never heard the rennaisance artists described as Thomists. I think I will not rethink anything, just stick to the truth.
I described Renaissance artists as Thomists? I don't think so. I spoke of the popes encouraging art and LEARNING. The last I heard, Thomism would be classified as the latter. The time-frames were different--the universities rose during the Middle Ages, the arts flower centuries later. But the Church inspired both.
